Rourkela: Three youths have been detained for the alleged gangrape of two minor girls in a forested patch behind Birsa Munda multi-purpose stadium under Plant Site police limits in Odisha’s Rourkela on Saturday evening.

According to sources, the incident took place between 5 pm and 8.30 pm when they had come to the city to buy sandals. The three miscreants approached them after the girls got down at Bisra Square and offered to drop them back at their home on the pretext that the area was not safe for them. They then forcibly bundled the girls into an autorickshaw and took them to a secluded place behind the stadium.

The three miscreants gangraped one of the victims by gagging her and the other girl too was sexually assaulted by two of them. The girls managed to escape even as the perpetrators called four other associates to the spot. They then called their relative who informed activist Rita Singh, who helped them file a police complaint the following day.

A case for kidnapping, gangrape of minors, criminal intimidation was registered under provisions of BNS 137(2), 70(2), 351(4) as well as section 6 of POCSO.
